Tim's 12 Tags of 2015 - April

Hello Everyone!

I would like to say Thank You to everyone for all of the wonderful congratulation messages here and on the Anything But Cute Blog yesterday. It was just such a warm welcome, I really appreciate it so much!

In my book, this is CAS! It took great restraint not to add about a billion other things to my card, but what the heck...it was fun building these 3d flowers. I won't go into any details of how I put this together, I will just direct you to check out all the techniques from the master himself. I followed his instructions pretty close to the letter with the exception of the 3D flowers and the die set used for the words.

I would like to take a minute to apologize for the absolute wonky zigzag stitching on my tags! My sewing machine was being a real bee-yatch!! I ended up pulling out some of the stitches and drawing them in with a Sharpie! What's that about!! lol

One last bit of news I would like to share with you. I submitted some photos to DecoArt of the technique that I used for the background of my butterfly card, and they liked it so much that they designed a pretty tutorial graphic page and published it!!!! Can you believe that!! I was blown away and really honoured!

Gorgeous and definitely CAS when it comes to you :) Love those 3D flowers! Such a great take on Tim's tags! I am still dreading making them since I do't have anything other than distress markers which I actually just bought to make those tags...Thank you for the inspiration my dear!

These are absolutely charming, Pamellia - so delicate and beautifully dimensional, and all the detailing is simply perfect. Wonderful takes on the April tag, and thank you so much for playing along at Country View Challenges.Fab news about the DecoArt tutorial too... off to catch up with it all!Alison xx

Ooh what a beautiful creation,fab idea making the flowers 3D Pamellia,another stunner and dare I say it.....another winner!Congrats on the Decoart feature but I'm not surprised as you are one mega talented lady ;)Big hugs Donna xxx

Hi PamelliaWell my dear, I have to say it, but once again I think yours is better than Sir Tim of Distressville's (sorry Tim' I know that will be me off the Christmas card list).The 3d flowers just take this to another level for me.Congratulations on the tutorial thingy. Watching you get messy is becoming very popular hahaha!Have a great weekend.Ang x

Oh my gosh, they are just stunning!! Absolutely perfect take on Tim's tags!! I love the flowers and the dimension you added to them!! The details are just perfect!! Love, love, love them!! Have a wonderful weekend :)

Such a beautiful card Pamellia, your tags are so pretty - they really are CAS for you aren't they! Your dimensional flowers are gorgeous. Congratulations on having your fabulous background technique featured at DecoArt.Paulinex

Uh hello and BAM! You did it again! CAS for sure but so superbly done. I am with you on pre-ordering the new items (at least in thought, as I had to put a hold on spending for a bit due to my big project)! Lol. I really appreciated the wonky sewing because I can't sew to save my life. Love the 3D flowers Bubbles! Amazeballs! Hugz to you muffin! ~Doc

Two gorgeous tags Pamellia love the 3d flowers and die cut sentiments, I think the stitching looks great a sort of shabby chic look, lol, congratulations on being published but then you are one amazing crafter hugslorraine x

Wow, Pamellia! You have completely rocked this month's tag! Even though it is a complete CAS, you've made these 2 tags completely your own, but making them into a card!!! (Truth be told, I couldn't wait to see your angle on this month's tag, and I'm completely surprised (I love surprises!) and totally impressed!) Ok, so that's 3 times I've used that word, but who's counting?? I love your 3d flowers and the beautiful coloring you have done on them. Your Sharpie sewing looks like the real deal! I have never met a sewing machine that isn't a real be-atch!

Huge congratulations on getting published. I have that treat to check out after I get home from work! Huge hugs on a fabulous job, my friend! And so proud of you on being published!

WOW WOW WOW, those flowers are just beautiful the 3D of them makes them look real and Sharpies for stitching? who would have guessed? This is another that could be framed, I just love love love everyhting you do. Told you you could write a book! DecorArt saw that and did it for you - well part of it LOL. Congratulations and so well done. (have you told them to correct your so beautiful original name?)

Heheheh - well, had to look up what CAS meant in the card making dictionary! Clean and Simple - so it says! You are right Pamellia - for you - it's CAS but dear me... those flowers do not look "simple" to me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are WONDERFUL. I just love them. So perfect. j.

Your tags are superb Pamellia - you can adapt to any style brilliantly. Like your word cutouts and those flowers are gorgeously layered up. Your deliberate and intended (sshhh!) use of the sharpie works perfectly.

You sure are on a fantastic roll of success and I'm truly delighted for you. You are putting your heart, soul and so much of your lovely talented self into your creations and into blogland so your recognition is uber well deserved. Maybe the lovely peeps at Decorart could edit your name tho?

I had to laugh Pamellia, bet it was killing you to make a card without the extra but it is a lovely card and sometimes CAS is enough.If you look at a card and you feel something's missing then fine add more but I look at this and it's perfect!!!Angela x

How lovely Pamellia, quite different from your usual style but I can see you have put your heart and soul into it and your creative perfection shines through, beautiful!hugs JaceeSimply Paper Card Design

OMG, Pamellia, your take on Tim's tags is fabulous! Love your 3D flowers and your Sharpie stitching clever idea is amazing! Also, I like the idea to put the tags on a card! What can I say - brilliant , as usual, my super talented friend! Big hugs :)Branka xxx

Pamellia, I am really enjoying your two tags and both are so lovely! The flowers are just bursting with sunshine and warmth! Congratulations and how exciting that DecoArt shared your fabulous work! Hugs!

How amazing it is that they published that tutorial?! Big congrats to you!!!! :DOh yes, CAS is veeeeery hard. I know it must had been very hard for you not to add tons of other embellihments to your project. Well done for managing to stay away from them! ;) Even without them this looks amazing!Hugs! xx

Definitely better than the originals Pamellia, the 3D flowers are just stunning and i really like the cut out words they look amazing. Congratulations on getting your technique published by DecoArt, you must have been a very smiley girl when that news came through! :-) xxx

Wow Pamellia your tags are STUNNING! The 3d flowers are beautiful, and all that lovely stitching. Haven't started mine yet. Thanks so much for still visiting and leaving a comment eve though I dropped off the radar for a while. Truly appreciate it. Karen.x
